Quarter Window Louver Question
I've been looking at various louvers for my '07 and was wondering about the Rouch version (which can be unscrewed from their mounting clips for window cleaning) vs. the cheaper louvers that mount directly to the windows and can't be removed. I'd really hate to put the cheaper ones on and then find that I can't clean the outside of the window. Any input would be appreciated (well, ALMOST any...).

My brother has a the 1/4 window louvers, they're held on with 3M Dual Loc ...
dual loc
there is a low profile dual loc that gives you a nice tight fit... so if you want to save a few bucks and remove them to clean - you can do it...

just get these:

Only $184 w/ shipping, painted to match your Mustang, and to clean you just rince well with the hose, then get a thin hand mitt, or maybe a kitchen sponge and soap it up through the gaps. When it's time to dry I use my chamois, folded, and it fits in pretty well.
You also need to remember that they window will be covered so it will be getting less dirty, plus you won't be able to see much dirt anyway!
I got mine because they were:
1- painted in my color
2- More affordable than buying less expensive ones that then had to be painted by a shop
3- Good looking
4- strong fitting
5- had a reasonable view through them, which pays off when backing up out of parking spaces

RE: Quarter Window Louver Question
I got the Roush ones about 9 months ago. You're right, they are removable, but I havent removed that since. I hardly look out that window and if i do the openings are so small that you can't even tell whether it's dirty or not. I guess it's more of a look thing. If you still go with Roush ones I'm pretty sure you won't take them off afterwards just to clean the area
